All Things Lord of The Rings & The Hobbit

First Lord of the Rings reading experience:

Read the Hobbit as a kid, but the LOTR Movies gave me the itch to read more Tolkien! Tolkien's stories surrounding Middle Earth are so numerous and told in such detail that you can revisit this world many times and feel like it is the first time, every time!

Favorite Tolkien character:

I would have to pick many... Bilbo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, etc, etc.....However, watching Legolas singlehandedly take down a Mummakil or skate down the the stairs at Helm's Deep, taking out Orcs..he's da man...well, I mean Elf!
